Conor Maynard , the British musician known for his amazing mashups , set out to answer the question we didnt know we needed to be answered: How many R&B classics fit to the tune of Drakes hit song Controller?

Conor and his brother Jack posted a video to YouTube on Monday where Jack texted the singer titles of old school R&B tracks and challenged him to sing them over Drakes beat.

Watch below to see Conor make hits like Marios Let Me Love You and R. Kelly s Ignition (the remix, of course) seamlessly blend into one epic track that will be stuck in your head all day.

Plus sometimes I just can't pick which song to sing as i sound so f**king great on all of them so yeh....
